Research Associate Projects

 

In this readership we have several one-year projects running at any time. These projects are led by a research associate and take one full year each. They may start any time during the year and are at some stage connected to a department in the academy.

The first project started May 2011, led by Mike Thompson. Two more projects will start this Autumn, we are currently hiring Research Associates to lead these projects.

Over the course of 4 years, we expect to run 11 projects like these, each for one full year, and each led by a Design Academy Eindhoven alumnus.
